To all 'whom 'it mag/concern;

. ,s Be it known that I, Wnmrm Mopar, a citizen of the United States, residing at Detroit, county of Wayne, State of Michigan, have invented aA certain `new and useful Improvement in Soil-Pipe Fittings; and I de- 'clare the tollowingito be a full,V clear, and exact de scription of the same, such as will enable others skilled` in the art to which it pertains to make and use the same, reference being had to the accompanying drawings, which .form a part of this specication.

My invention relates to an improvement in soil pipe ittings for use in sanitaryl plumbing, shown in the accompanying drawings and more particularly set forth in the following specification and claims.

In the drawings: Figure l is a perspective view showing bathroom interiors of tw'o floors; Fig. 2 is a plan view of the fitting as constructed for use on the lupper iioor; Fig. 3 is a side elevation oi the same;` Fig. 4 is a plan view of the fitting employed in bath rooms below the upper Hoor, and; Fig. 5 is a side elevation of the` same. i The object of my invention is to produce a lfitting to connect the return bend of the closet with the soil pipe,

` the fitting providing for connections to be made dicharge from the. closet' to receive the rcctly with the washstand and bath-tub by means which will avoid the possibility oi siphoning either the traps oi the wash-stand'or bath-tub when the contents oi the ,closet are discharged in any bath-room con. nccted with the soil pipe.

Another advantage in my improved tting is that the objection raised by plumbers to connecting the dis` charge pipes of the Wash-stand and bath-tub with the return bend of the closet and which is the fruitful cause oi broken joints and leaks due to the settling of the closet or Hoors is entirely done away with.

Referring to the letters of reference shown in the drawings, A indicates the closet in the lower and A the closet' in the upper bath room; B the-lower bath-tub and B the upper bath-tub; C the lower and C the uppcr wash-stand; D is the soil pipe.

E is the return bend oi the lower closet and E the return bend oi the upper closet.

F is the fitting connectingthe return lower closet with the soil pipe. Ff is thc hub of the litting to receive the end of the return bend.

F2 is an opening in the fitting above the line of dienipple f with which a wipe Ajoint connection is made with the-disbend oi the charge pipe c oi the wash-stand.

F3 is an opening in the fitting also above the line of discharge from the closet tov receive a nipple f with A Y ASpeciilcation ofi'i'hetters Patent.

F4 is the hub formed on top of thettings to receive the end of the vent pipe G leading upward ona lineparallelwith the soil pipe 'and connecting :therewith at a point usually live feet above the upper closet connection with the soil pipe. y

H is the upper fitting provided with a hub H into which the end of. the closet bend enters and H2 is the hub formed in the fitting above the line ofdischarge from the closet with which the pipe 4c oi the washstand connects: H3 is the 'hub formed in the fitting also above the line o the closet 'discharge` wtlrwhich the pipe b ofthe bath-tub connects. A l Having indicated the several parts, the-.operation and advantages oi my improvement will bereadily understood. i a l l The point at ,which the discharge from the wash- -stand and bath-tub enters the titting'being above the line of discharge from the 'c1oset,it is obvious that the discharge *from the closet will in no wise aiect the seal of the traps of either the wash-stand or bath-tub, as neithercan be broken through siphonage due to the discharge oi the closet. It will `also be seen to provide Afor cases in which closets are located on several iloors and connected with the same soil pipe, l have ormed the fitting with a right angle bend' in order that a vent pipe may be provided leading from the lower fitting and running upward parallel with the line of the soil pipe and between the walls ofthe building to a'point above the closet 'on the upper floor, where it is connected with the soil pipe, as shown in Fig. l. By means oi this vent, the discharge irom the upper closets will in no wise affect the seal oi the closet or other xtures in the rooms below.

Having thus described my invention, what I claim 1. The combination with-the bend of a closet bowl and a soil pipe; of a tting having an angular extension constructed for connection with the bowl and having a form at its opposite end for connection with the soil pipe, and also having a vent and a pair of separate, independent inlet openings for other ilxtures,.the vent and inlet openings being urranged above the line of discharge from the bowl, the tting including its inlets having unrestricted communication with the' soil pipe, whereby the discharge through the fitting and the inlets ls directly into the soil pipe. f

2., The combination with the bend of a closet bowl and aA soil pipe; or a 'Sitting constructed at one end for direct connection with the bend of-the bowl and at its opposite enddirectly with the soil pipe, the fitting having unrestricted communication with the bend of 'the bowl and the soll pipe, and also having separate inlet-openings for other nxtures, the inlet openings being arranged above the ,i line otdischarge from the bowl and having unrestricted and independent communication with the fittingy and soil pipe,`whereby the discharge through the inlets is directly in-to the soil pipe. I I' 3. The combination with the bend of.a closet bowl-and n soil pipe; of a fitting constructed for connection with the bowl and the soil pipe, the iittlng'hnving unrestricted communication with the bend of the bowl and the soll pipe and also having separate bath tub and wash stand inlet openings for otller'iixtures, said inletopenings being arranged above .the line ot discharge from the bowland having Yunrestricted and independent communication with the fitting; and soil pipe," whereby the discharge through the fitting' and .the inlets is directly into the soil pipe.

In testimony whereof, I sign this specification in the 15 presenceoftwo witnesses.
